Standard electrode potential of three metals X, Y and Z are-1.2 V, +0.5 V and -3.0 V respectively. The reducing power of these metals will be

A

`Y gt Z gt X`

B

`Y gt x gt Z`

C

`Z gt X gt Y`

D

`X gt Y gt Z`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
As the electrode potential drops, reducing power increases So,
SO, Z (-3.0 V) > X (-1.2 V) > Y (+0.5 V)
